    Attending The Masters Tournament

    @NoBareFeet Thanks for the great suggestions. A coworker mentioned the Masters lottery earlier this year because her husband has been trying to get tickets for years. I entered on a whim and was selected for the Tuesday practice round. Lucky as heck but definitely looking forward to it.

    Red Sox. Boom.

    Not only is The Trop half empty but it seems like half of the fans there for the game are rooting the visiting team. There were times in this series where the cheering for the Red Sox made it sound like they were the home team. I wouldn't be surprised if TB leads MLB in # of tickets sold to the...

    Red Sox. Boom.

    I also had "modest" expectations for this year. It didn't look like they had the pitching to go far in what would be a tough division. As it turns out, you were almost right with the standings. They finished tied with the Yankees for 2nd and just a game ahead of Toronto who finished 4th. Now...

    OT: Amazon Deliveries

    Maybe your package was delivered to the wrong address and the person there was dropping it off for you? I usually get a notification and often get a picture of the delivered package for my Amazon orders. You may be able to see the recorded delivery time in your order history to see if the...

    What hall did you stay in

    I was up on the 7th floor for fall 81 through spring of 83. There's a good chance we crossed paths and hopefully had some beers. :-)

    NIL raising the ante: Walk-ons now on scholarship too

    Is there anything that would stop them from taking their five official visits, enjoying all the recruiting song and dance and then choosing to walk on at Alabama? I also don't see that having their tuition and expenses covered would stop them from signing additional NIL deals, the same as if...

    NIL raising the ante: Walk-ons now on scholarship too

    I think this is great for the walk-ons at BYU (who likely joined team with no expectation of this benefit). I also fear that this effectively eliminates the 85 player scholarship limit for football teams. The Alabama/Clemson/Ohio State/Oklahoma/Georgia contingent will be able to have 4 star...

    2021 (delayed 2020) Tokyo Olympics Thread

    Poulter could set if Hancock gets hurt but they aren't likely to use her unless they have to. US offense looking good so far but hard to say if that is more about them or the opponent. Haleigh Washington looking good in the middle tonight too.

    So it's mainly the coach? How many shots did he miss? What did the coach do differently during the 16-2 run to end the game that he didn't do while the team was leading?

    No reason...just gonna post this

    If there are any fans of Chicago out there, check out this band (Leonid & Friends). Their covers are very well done and they sound really good live too. This is the first Steely Dan song I've heard them do and they did a great job. If anyone is wondering, her (translated) name is Ksenia Buzina.

    No reason...just gonna post this

    I'm embarrassed to say that I watched the whole Donny and Marie clip. A couple of observations: Not a bad guest lineup - Ruth Buzzi, Buddy Hackett and Suzanne Somers Donnie and Marie weren't bad on ice skates That was the absolute worst version of "Reelin' in the Years" I've ever heard - but I...

    OT: USA COVID-19 Vaccination Updates

    Cletus11 - Thanks for your daily updates. They are greatly appreciated. Alameda Country was already over-reported by approximately 33%. They reduced the incorrect number by 25% but the overreporting was actually 1/3 of the correct value. I agree that this was an important reporting change...
